What are some ways to normalize the mental health conversation?Talk Openly About Mental Health - It's perfectly normal to talk to friends, family, and coworkers about seeing a doctor if you have the flu or a broken leg. Talking about seeing a therapist because you're depressed normalizes the mental health conversation in a similar way. If you're talking to a friend or loved one, be direct. Being hesitant to talk about mental health only adds to the notion that it's a taboo topic.
